Changes to AIR since 2.0
Changes are listed as I did them, and are basically notes. If you are
already familiar with AIR, reading this is probably all you need to do.
Who reads DOC's anyway ?????
NEW=New Feature ENH=Enhancement FIX=Bug Fix
Version: 2.02
------------------
0. Added screens. Now 10 frames available.
1. (NEW)
AIR now writes information on succesful creations, and all errors
to a log file, AIR.LOG. See the manual on where it is created, if it
does not exist, how it is searched for, and what is written.
Also, the file SAMPLE.LOG will display the format.
The logfile also logs what mode was used for the session,
Data File, Command Line or Interactive.
Currently there is no way to NOT write to the log, perhaps in a future
version.
2. (ENH)
The Command File, used via the @file on the command line or in a batch
file, can now have more than one file setup in it, have as many as you
want! The # is used as a end of file marker, and at least one must
exist.... on the last line. See the sample file AIRTEST.DAT.
3. (ENH)
You no longer need to use solid spaces (Chr(255)) between words in the
Sysop Message when using the command line. Instead, use an underline
char (_) to represent a space. These will be replaced with the blank
by AIR.
Example: This_is_a_command_line_test!
will result in
This is a command line test!
in the AIR/RIP frame.
4. (NEW)
Added a safety to AIR interactive mode. If there is no keypress within
3 minutes, AIR will terminate. It writes a Timeout message to the
logfile. This effectivly eliminates the chance of the system being tied
up for hours, should command line syntax be incorrect when running in a
system event.
This also results in an exit errorlevel of 186, for batch file checking.
5. (NEW)
Added two switches to the Command File syntax. These switches must be
placed in column one, and they act on all command sets following.
! = Exclamation point. Turns of the text window reset code, same as
using TEST in command line.
? = Question mark. Turns the code for reset window back on.
These can be used through out the command file, thus creating some
frames "with" the reset code, and others "without".
Whenever one of these switches are read, a message line is written to
the log file. See the sample file AIRTEST.DAT, even run it for a
visual lesson. (Can only be run with Registered Version)
6. Relaxed the restrictions in the evaluation/free copy. The Sysop message
may now be edited. All 10 frames are available for use.
The only restriction in this copy is you cannot use the @file command.
7. Lowered the Registration base fee to $10.00 US.
